Next Level: The Lakers 2020 Championship Ring Is One Of A Kind! (Most Expensive Ring In NBA History)
The championship hardware was designed by Jason Arasheben — famously known as Jason of Beverly Hills — and was given to Lakers staff and players on Tuesday night following the team's October win. The rings feature more carats of diamonds than any other ring in NBA history.
But behind the glitz and glamour are tributes to a season that was like none other before it.
According to the franchise, the rings feature .95 carats of amethyst (a violet variety of quartz) in acknowledgment of the 95 days the Lakers spent quarantined in Orlando after the NBA decided to continue its season in a "bubble" following the start of the coronavirus pandemic.
There are also .52 carats of yellow diamonds to represent the team's 52 regular-season wins, along with other nods to the franchise's history.
But the most talked-about aspects of the rings are its tributes to Bryant, who died in a helicopter crash on Jan. 26. Posted By PSmooth
